Huangyaguan Great Wall, Tianjin, China: August 27, 2023
The photos in this collection were shot during a hike along the Huangyaguan section of the Great Wall of China. It is located just north of Jizhou, a district in Tianjin, just east of the Chinese capital. The hike was organized by a local organization, Beijing Hikers. The pictures are from my iPhone and Fujifilm X-T200 digital mirrorless camera. There were some minor edits to most photographs, mainly cropping and scaling most photos to a 4:3 ratio.
